Sweet Potato Latkes

  • 1

Ingredients

  • Although sweet potatoes are an unlimited veggie, these count as a healthy fat on P3 because of the oil.
  • Phase 3
  • Serves 4 (about 3 latkes per serving)
  • Prep time: 30 minutes
  • Total time: 30 minutes
  • 4 cups peeled, grated sweet potato
  • 1 1/2 cups finely chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup chickpea or quinoa flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • Grapeseed oil for frying

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients (except the oil) and mix well.

Heat 3/8-inch of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot (but not smoking). Spoon 1/4 cup of the latke mixture into the skillet and flatten. Add as many as the pan will hold without crowding, and cook until golden brown (about 1 1/2 minutes on each side). Transfer the latkes to paper towels to drain, and then transfer them to a rack set on a shallow baking pan in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining latke mixture and serve warm.
